Reviews for
The
Hermit of Humbug Mountain
by Mike Nettleton & Carolyn
Rose
Let me say this right off, The Hermit
of Humbug Mountain is one of the most delightful reads
I have read in a long time. Entertainment at its max.
Two young people, Noah and his younger sister Abby are the
main characters of this adventure.
The entire family is in the midst of overcoming
the death of their Mom and the adventure begins as Dad brings
a new woman into their lives, one that Noah is not ready
to accept.
Noah decides to run away from home and is joined by his
sister, the logical one of the two. Here is where the story
begins as they travel to Humbug Mountain to await the dawn
of a new day and execute their plan of escape.
Here, Abby is kidnapped and Noah goes on a guest to find
his sister. Little did the two of them know they had been
chosen to fight Spid, a terrible demon that has been waiting
for a certain time to take over the world and throw it into
darkness. It is their destiny to fight against this evil
and save the world.
You are just delighted with the different characters that
the authors introduce. There is an entire community of strange
beings living inside Humbug Mountain, just waiting for you
to enjoy them. A book that is sure to entertain the reader,
with a lot of mystery, adventure and supernatural.
A very good read. Recommended!

I will never be able to drive through the
sahdy curves of Humbug Mountain again without looking up
into its misty forest and wondering what might be hidden
there.
The book The Hermit of Humbug Mountain
by Mike Nettleton & Carolyn Rose is a fantasy story
of two local runaway teens who find themselves drawn into
the mountain and set on a mission to save the world from
the forces of Spid the Devious, Grand Exalted Garboon of
the Land Below Skin, the Land of Beneath, and his army of
trolls, ogres, Bansees, demons, gronks, skrees, grammits,
and… you get the picture.
Noah and his sister Abby are separated in
the mountain and meet unlikely allies and enemies, as they
move towards the final battle for the unsuspecting people
of the land Above Skin, or us, as the surface dwellers.
A vanished drummer, a hermit of local legend,
a sword-carrying warrior girl, Darksuckers, and a little
gray guy named Uh-oh, reveal themselves one by one as Noah
and Abby learn to trust and find faith in friendship and
themselves. I would tell you more, or maybe not, but I haven’t
yet finished reading the book and I won’t spoil it
for myself. So check it out for yourself.
